I am writing an app that can access the iOS root system, the user should be able to save files to his document directory. I am using this code to save the file to the document directory.
For Text:
NSArray *paths = NSSearchPathForDirectoriesInDomains(NSDocumentDirectory,
NSUserDomainMask, YES);
NSString *documentsDirectory = [paths objectAtIndex:0];
[self.filePath writeToFile:[NSString stringWithFormat:@"%@/%@", documentsDirectory, [self.filePath lastPathComponent]]
atomically:YES
encoding:NSUTF8StringEncoding error:nil];
For other files:
NSArray *paths = NSSearchPathForDirectoriesInDomains(NSDocumentDirectory,
NSUserDomainMask, YES);
NSString *documentsDirectory = [paths objectAtIndex:0];
[self.filePath writeToFile:[NSString stringWithFormat:@"%@/%@", documentsDirectory,[self.filePath lastPathComponent]]
atomically:YES];
My problem is I can save .txt files, but not other files, If I save for example .plist files with the save text methods, the contact is replaced by the directory path of the file. When I save a picture, or any other file it isn't readable. Is there a good method to save files without destroying them?
You're calling [self.filePath writeToFile:]
, thus writing the contents of the filePath
variable to a file.
You should do something like:
[contents writeToFile:...]
Here you have an example of saving the image:
assuming you get the content of the image into NSData object:
NSData *pngData = UIImagePNGRepresentation(image);
then write it to a file:
NSArray *paths = NSSearchPathForDirectoriesInDomains(NSDocumentDirectory, NSUserDomainMask, YES);
NSString *documentsPath = [paths objectAtIndex:0]; //Get the docs directory
NSString *filePath = [documentsPath stringByAppendingPathComponent:@"image.png"]; //Add the file name
[pngData writeToFile:filePath atomically:YES]; //Write the file
